You can request a zone patrol by submitting a residential check form on-line under Services. While the department does not have the manpower to watch 24 hours a day, officers to the zone will be assigned to check your property as their call loads permit.

Dispatchers are trained to try to get as much information as possible to determine the nature of the call and its seriousness. By doing so, they are able to dispatch the number and type of public safety personnel needed.
